In this paper, a novel single-phase hybrid switched reluctance motor (HSRM) is proposed for hammer breaker application. The hammer breaker requires only unidirectional rotation and high-speed operation. To satisfy the requirements and eliminate torque dead-zone, the rotor of the proposed 4/4 poles SRM is designed with wider pole arc and non-uniform air-gap. This motor has a simple structure and produces low torque ripple. Permanent magnets (PMs) are mounted on the inner stator at a certain position which enables it to park the rotor for self-start and create positive cogging torque in the torque dead-zone. Compared with conventional single-phase switched reluctance motor, HSRM has an increased torque density and relatively low torque ripple. To verify effectiveness, finite element method (FEM) is employed to analyze the performance of the proposed structure. Then, the proposed motor is compared with the existing motor drive system for the same application. The proposed HSRM is easy to manufacture along with competitive performance.

An induction motor operated with a conventional direct self controller(DSC) shows a sluggish response during startup and under changes of torque command. Fuzzy logic controller(FLC) is used in conjection with DSC to minimize these problems. A FLC chooses the switching states based on a set of fuzzy variables. Flux position, error in flux magnitude and error in torque are used as fuzzy state variables. Fuzzy rules are determinated by observing the vector diagram of flux and currents. This paper proposes hybrid fuzzy controller for direct torque control(DTC) of induction motor drives. The speed controller is based on adaptive fuzzy learning controller(AFLC), which provide high dynamics performances both in transient and steady state response. Flux position, error in flux magnitude and error in torque are used as FLC state variables. The speed is estimated with model reference adaptive system(MRAS) based on artificial neural network(ANN) trained on-line by a back-propagation algorithm. This paper is controlled speed using hybrid fuzzy controller(HFC) and estimation of speed using ANN. The performance of the proposed induction motor drive with HFC controller and ANN is verified by analysis results at various operation conditions.

This paper presents the control method for the hybrid actuator comprising a DC motor and an MR brake. Generally, a DC motor as an active actuator has a small power to weight ratio and goes unstable with higher force control gain due to its saturation limit. In order to cope with this instability and make the transparency higher, this paper proposes a hybrid actuator which consists of a DC motor and an MR brake as a passive actuator and its force control method based on network theory. A DC motor actively produces the output corresponding to the signs of the input currents. On the other hand, an MR brake passively resists against the external load independent of the sign changes of the input currents. This characteristics is widely known as 'passive' This paper suggests a force control method based on passivity concept in network theory for the hybrid actuator and verified its performance and stability through the experiments.

The vector control scheme is usually applied to the high performance induction motor drives. The PI controller is adopted traditionally to control the motor speed and currents in the vector control scheme. In this case, the dynamic performance of the induction motor is dependent on the PI gains and the gain optimization is necessary in order to get a good dynamic performance. But, it is very hard to optimize the PI gains uniquely within the speed control range because the equivalent model of the motor control system should be known exactly. In this paper, we propose the hybrid control scheme to remove the defects of PI controller. The hybrid control scheme includes the simplified fuzzy controller which operates in the transient state and the PI controller which operates in the steady state. The proposed scheme is applied to the vector control for induction motor, and the digital simulation and the experimental results are given to verify the proposed scheme.

This paper deals with the broadband electromagnetic emission test of a hybrid electric vehicle. The hybrid electric vehicle's powertrain system consists of an internal combustion engine and an EV traction motor. Depending on the SOC of the traction battery, these modes change automatically in the running state. The Korea electromagnetic compatibility regulations of KMVSS and UN WP.29 stipulated the evaluation method of hybrid electric vehicles. This study analyzes and compares two test results: internal combustion and electric motor mode. Some problems of test conditions are described and an improved test method is proposed for measuring broadband emissions of a hybrid electric vehicle. As a result, we expect this paper to be used as a consideration for improvement when test specifications are revised in the future.

In this paper, a new drive system(SHS) for hybrid electric vehicle is proposed. As dual rotor hybrid electric vehicle using planetary gearsets, the SHS has the advantages of both series and parallel systems. The output speed and torque of SHS can be determined at specific point regardless of the engine's operating point. When the size of generator which is used in SHS is same as in THS, the SHS has more activities of engine control due to the ability that is operated in lower speed range. To maximize the performance of system, we carried out optimization for the three parameters that are engine, motorl and motor2. As the result of the optimization, we confirmed the SHS is more preferable to THS in fuel consumption and acceleration area.
